Answer:

B. Gases have weak intermolecular forces between the atoms or molecules.

C. Gases have more kinetic energy than liquids or solids.

D. The particles of a solid vibrate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of kinetic energy in a substance is related to its phase. Gases have more kinetic energy than liquids. Liquids have more kinetic energy than solids. When a substance increases in temperature, heat is being added, and its particles are gaining kinetic energy.
